Food for thought!

There are some days when a post on design just does not do it for me. There are far too many important things besides that I need to share.....

From a culture of sharing we have become a culture driven by possession and profit. The century of self. This short film comes from the kitchens of the Golden Temple (which I have blogged about before) where every day around 100,000 people, regardless of colour, caste or religion, donate, prepare, consume and clean for nothing more than compassion. Are we really moving in the right direction?This year the world will produce enough food to feed twice the world's population, yet every day almost one billion people will sleep hungry.

Very often I come across things of such beauty, I feel compelled to immortalise it for ever by recording it down someplace and sharing it with others, especially those who are equally turned on by aesthetics and design as I am. This blog is that perfect place! It could be something as simple as a photograph of a gorgeous flower blooming in the midst of a brutal summer, or as elaborate as a fabulous art show by an eminent artist. So really, it is about anything that touches any one of my senses in the form of beautiful design, captivating music, delicious food, exciting art and photography, anything that makes me happy....the list is endless! I hope I can do justice!

Feel free to use my pics. You don't have to give me credit, just don't claim them as yours!

My favorite quote

"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him, he is always doing both."
